Another morning run and evening walk. 10,503 steps including incidentals 😁

[Instructor57]

Another early run this morning but not as early as ToothPickJafah or Jools2020 .I was out of the door at 06:30

To complete Week 3 run 3 on my C25k re run !

That was absolutely fine with no issues.

Absolutely ready for week 4.

Then as I have been doing during the heat I waited for early evening before going for my walk .

My usual route which is around 5100 steps (just over 4k)

I've averaged 8687 steps per day over the last 7 days so I'm happy if that's over 8

So, so far so good, my cardiologist is very happy with my progress and I'm certainly feeling the benefits of carrying less weight!, Which is still coming off !

Happy Running/Walking 🙂

That’s amazing Ian, well done! 👏👍

I’m feeling very, very tired and my wee feet are really sore. I’ve ended up doing 16,309 steps today!

I’ll be taking it easy this weekend. My partner injured his knee running last week and can’t drive without pain so I’ll have weekend to myself. Will do yoga, stretching, and foam rolling my feet 👣

Hope you have a fab weekend! 🤗

[Jools2020 in reply to ToothPickJafah]

Definitely take it easy over the weekend!

[ToothPickJafah Walked 5k in reply to Jools2020]

I’m having a couple of days rest! Enjoyed a lie in this morning 👏

[Jools2020 in reply to ToothPickJafah]

I think you’ll benefit from it 😊

[Instructor57 in reply to ToothPickJafah]

Thank you !

16309 !No wonder your feet are sore.

Maybe a day off ? 🤔🙂

[ToothPickJafah Walked 5k in reply to Instructor57]

I’m having a couple of days off! But I did enjoy a lie in this morning 👏

[Instructor57 in reply to ToothPickJafah]

I'm still enjoying my lie in 😁

[Jools2020]

well done, Ian! Good you’re keeping those steps up with the running and walking - it’s all building your strength and stamina! 👏👍😊🏃

[Instructor57 in reply to Jools2020]

Thanks Jools, it is !And still dropping weight 🙂

[SueAppleRun]

[Instructor57 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Many thanks 🙂👍

Well done Ian on all those steps and completeing run 3 of week 3. Starting at 6.30 am is very wise in this warm weather.

I'm not going to parkrun tomorrow as I have been there for the last 5 weeks in a row, however, I intend to go a short 3K maintenance run at around 7.30 am.

[Instructor57 in reply to AlMorr]

Thanks Alan , and that sounds like a good plan for a short 3k 🙂👍

[Birdlady64 in reply to AlMorr]

That's my plan as well for tomorrow morning. Although I'm not sure if I will get out by 7.30My local parkrun in the woods is cancelled tomorrow due to a police investigation into a woman who disappeared 6 years ago and is now sadly presumed deceased. Quite unsettling and very sad...

[Birdlady64]

How brilliant are you at keeping those steps up with your runs and walks? Very well done Ian. You are doing more than I am! 👏👏👏

[Instructor57 in reply to Birdlady64]

Thanks Diane , physically seeing and feeling the results keeps me going 🙂

[CBDB Administrator]

brilliant! Well done for that number of steps! And yes, there are some ‘early early’ birds out there running! 🤣 (I’m just ‘kind-of-early’)

[Instructor57 in reply to CBDB]

Thanks , my motivation is seeing and feeling the results 🙂

[Killerblue]

Well done to managing all of that exercise especially in this heat and for continuing to lose weight !! I wish I had your control

[Instructor57 in reply to Killerblue]

I was given an opportunity!The rest is up to me 🙂

[Doris8 1000miles per year]

Well done ? A lot of steps . I am as well on 8000 . Even better if over. Maybe more when it gets cooler.

[Instructor57 in reply to Doris8]

Yes, cooler will certainly help !I'm trying to keep over 8,000 but I'm also not beating myself up if I have a rest , this has/ is, a big change for me 🙂

[Roxdog]

Your cardiologist will be using you as an example success story!

[Instructor57 in reply to Roxdog]

Haha, thank you !The rehab team said something similar which was nice to hear 🙂

[Over60sRunner 1000miles per year]

Well done Ian. So glad your progress is onwards and upwards. I have now shifted the best part of half a stone, and although I still have a way to go it's definitely making a positive impact on my health overall.

Keep up the good work, keep being an inspiration to me and many others 😁

[Instructor57]

Thank you !And shifting half a stone is great !

And yes, I still have a way to go .

Thank you as always for your kind reply 🙂
